If the theory that a secretary is doing his tweeting is true, that might be analyzing the secre-tweeter, not the trum-peter.
Many trump tweets contain spelling and/or grammatical errors, which either (depending on your slant) prove or don’t prove who wrote them. Since tweetery isn’t a hotbed of educational prowess, it probably doesn’t matter anyway.
Honestly he’s already starting to try and steer the blame for all the bad decisions away from himself. This man really does NOT like a poor approval rating.
Regarding the travel ban:
There was one other thing I saw that polled poorly and he tried to shift the blame away from himself but for the life of my I can’t remember. Basically he’s trying to play both sides of the aisle in my opinion. Doing things to keep his voters happy and then saying opposite things to try and make the rest of us like him.
I think the law being changed to allow him a third and fourth term because he is so wildly popular that we can’t imagine anyone else holding that office has a much higher probability than him quitting.
That would entail some challenges about the standards at U of Penn in the 1960s… or at least the standards for sons of rich fathers in the business school, which alas would not surprise me.
I rather think that he has good enough literacy but* finds it to be a chore*, that he’d be the kind of student who’ll read up on something that’s not immediately fun to him only because it’s going to be in the test and count for the grade, and in turn seek to get good grades out of competitiveness rather than scholarlyness and will have put it out of his mind two weeks after finals. Which would make him just one among millions of graduates who approached it that way and unremarkable at that.
Has anyone sought out DJT’s college transcript? Don’t most Presidents get theirs exposed and scrutinized sooner or later?
I can’t see the Republicans impeaching Trump. I mean just number wise, it’s unrealistic. If they impeach him…for whatever, it would make the whole party look like a complete bunch of bozos for not being able to control the nomination process.
I hope the President remains in good health, but he’s 71 , overweight and not in good shape, I could see him having a stroke or a heart attack in the next 6 months to a year. God forbid that happens, because do you really want Pence on the job?
What interests me is the President’s speech patterns. I’ve see some linguists break it down, and they make a good case for social manipulation in the way he talks. It’s actually fascinating. If he’s doing that, he’s had some good coaching.
I’m appalled by the Trump Presidency but this is fucking ridiculous. One only has to see him reading from the teleprompter when he’s giving a speech to know he’s literate. Granted, he sounds choppy and halting but he’s still reading.
Too late.
You don’t remember him criticizing others for using teleprompters? He even said that he thought it should be illegal for politicians to use teleprompters.
Well, let me say, I’m really, really enjoying the articles on constituents standing up for themselves to their representative. You go American democratic process!!
Honestly yes. We’d see the exact same policies, judicial appointments, etc. under President Pence as we’re seeing under President Trump. Except Pence isn’t going to kowtow to Putin, overrule the Joint Chiefs to satisfy his ego, or blunder his way into a war. Pence isn’t going to be any worse than Trump.
I think I predicted he would do that before he was even elected.
Here it is. I said it on August 2
Yeah, all that bad press has not allowed him to enjoy being President. Poor baby!
Besides, it’s just *hard *(whiny tone). You have to read stuff and go to meetings and shit. And people are mean to you. And maybe all you want to do is sit around in your underwear and eat Cheetos and watch reality shows and instead you have to put on a suit and a tie and spray your hair down and go to work (WORK! a la Maynard G. Krebs). Steve Bannon told me this would be fun. Maybe he’s having fun, but I’m not.
I survived four years of Pence as governor, I could survive four years of him as PotUS.
No, that’s the Vice-President and his sea-faring brother. 
‘To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.’
― Theodore Roosevelt
I want him to stay and keep doing crazy things and appointing crazy people and in four years I want to see him leave office a broken, tired and humbled man.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the rumors about his attitude were true, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he stays on regardless.
